GMP language change

  Being unilingual and English speaking this is a
disappointment.

"Unilingual and English speaking" is an euphemism
for American, I
suppose.  

  Just one question - will there be an English web site
available?  I
  had a look at the new site and couldn't even figure out
how to
  download GMP.

Yeah there will be an English site again.  The CNRS got so
irate about
the poor French of the new site that they will actually not
support
GMP.  Unfortnately, I've lost the original English version,
so I have
to rely on google's machine translation to convert the
"French" back
to ehum, "English":

This sounds perfectly pathetic.

Webmasters typically put web pages into a source-code
control system, 
so that you can't loose old revisions.  If you use CVS, or
the more
modern/more hip subversion, you can delegate web site
maintenance to 
numerous trusted colleagues. 

Over at http://gnucash.org,
we set up a title bar across the top,
with multiple langages indicated. Different authors get
access to
different language versions to do translations whenever they
get 
around to it (although it seems that besides french and
german, 
the rest have not gotten around to it ...).

Actually Canadian, but from an area where almost no one
speaks French (well
not really).
